“Good morning. I’m sorry for disturbing in early morning but Mum asked me to give you this,” she said it shyly as I opened the door for her. She knocked for like three times, and I had to get from the bed and walk from my room to the front door. She was standing there, with a two-layered lunch box in her hands.

I lifted one of my eyebrows.

She cleared , “I’m living next door.”

“Oh.”

“Mum said you’re living on your own, so she wanted me to deliver you this, just to make sure you eat your breakfast,” she added then smiled.  

I took the lunch box, “Thank you.”

“Uhm, yeah. So I should get going.”

I nodded, and then she left. I laughed at the thing on my hand. What a very friendly neighbor, although I haven’t introduce myself to them properly because I just finished redecorated the room. Since I had transferred to the university in Seoul, I rented this apartment near the campus so it will help much for my study.

A minute after I laughed, I jumped off shock as I walked pass the mirror and found myself in an inappropriate looks for letting a girl to know—even she didn’t come inside but she surely saw me in this stupid pajamas. Well, I basically was only wearing black wife-beater and shorts. But, the shorts were too short and exposing my legs till ten centimeters above my knees.

Oh my God. No wonder that she blushed.
